Honey Spiced Pork

Need a dinner in a hurry, but not willing to compromise on taste? This dish will only take 25 minutes in the kitchen, and boasts delicious flavours.

Ingredients

2 large pork steaks

1 medium sweet potato

6 large kale leaves

Dijon mustard

Honey

Chilli flakes

1 lemon

Method

Pre-heat oven to 200°c.

Slice the sweet potato into thin wedges about 1 centimetre thick.

Lay the wedges on an oven tray lined with greaseproof paper, and drizzle with salt, pepper and chilli flakes.

Roast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, turning halfway.

Slice the stalks off the kale then blanch in boiling water for 30 seconds. Remove and refresh under cold water, shaking off excess water.

Season pork steaks well with salt and chilli flakes. In a hot pan with a little oil, fry the steaks for six minutes on one side, then turn and cook for two minutes on the other side. Squeeze a little honey and lemon juice over the top of each one then remove from heat and leave to rest for two minutes.

While the pork is resting, spoon a dollop of Dijon mustard over each one and spread evenly, adding a kick as the juices release from the meat.

Roughly slice the pork and the kale leaves diagonally, then toss together in a mixing bowl.

Spoon the resting juices over the top, along with some fresh lemon juice.

Serve with the sweet potato chips.
